Commercial Space Tianlong 3 Test Run - Yantai

This aerial drone photo taken on Sept. 15, 2025, shows a first-stage propulsion system test for the Tianlong-3 liquid carrier rocket conducted on an offshore launch pad at the Haiyang Oriental Aerospace Port in east China's Shandong Province. A first-stage propulsion system test for the Tianlong-3 large liquid-propellant carrier rocket was successfully held here on Monday. Independent development of the Tianlong-3 rocket began in March 2022 by Chinese commercial aerospace company Space Pioneer. The rocket is 72 meters in length with a takeoff mass of 600 tonnes. Its first stage is equipped with nine "Tianhuo-12" engines operating in parallel. The rocket has a low-Earth orbit carrying capacity of 17-22 tonnes, and a sun-synchronous orbit capacity of 10-17 tonnes. It is able to launch 36 satellites in a single mission and supports large-scale cargo transport for China's space station, as well as medium- and high-orbit satellite launches.

New DEEP Sea Underwater Habitat Announced

handout artists' impression of one of the bedrooms in a typical configuration of DEEP's Sentinel System. Each room enjoys the view through a huge viewport overhead, and lots of space for personal items and storage. A touchscreen device may be used for communications and entertainment. A new deep-sea habitat project has been launched by ocean technology and exploration company, DEEP, which has announced its intention to create a permanent human presence under the oceans by 2027. The project is already two years in development, with its base located at the former British National Diving and Activity Centre (NDAC), an 80m-deep, 600m-long flooded quarry in Gloucester, England, which suddenly announced its closure in February 2022. The centrepiece of DEEP’s project is Sentinel, a customisable capsule system designed to be ‘modular, scalable, autonomous, recoverable, re-configurable and re-deployable.’ Sentinel can be tailored to the individual needs of its users, be that a single installation or a network of segme
